Tech Xplore / Engineering identity: Anonymous data remains vulnerable to re-identification through basic details
We create and consume data continuously. This data is specific to us, but when consolidated, this shared data can be of immense value. The value is not only for population level insights.
Medical Xpress / Possible therapeutic approach to treat diabetic nerve damage discovered
Nerve damage is one of the most common and burdensome complications of diabetes. Millions of patients worldwide suffer from pain, numbness, and restricted movement, largely because damaged nerve fibers do not regenerate sufficiently. ...
Phys.org / Researchers identify key molecular mechanism in cell communication
A new study describes a key molecular mechanism that explains how cells exchange information through extracellular vesicles (EVs), small particles with great therapeutic potential. The results, published in the Journal of ...
Phys.org / Bilingual brains switch modes as Czech speakers process English like natives, even when it means making 'native' mistake
A new study shows that while Czech speakers are immune to specific grammar illusions in their mother tongue, they unconsciously adopt the "glitchy" processing patterns of native speakers when reading in English.
Phys.org / Corral technique measures fragile quantum states in magnet-superconductor hybrids from afar
Hybrid materials made of magnets and superconductors give rise to fascinating quantum phenomena, which are so sensitive that it is crucial to measure them with minimal interference. Researchers at the University of Hamburg ...
Medical Xpress / US-approved drug to improve quality of life for people with rare condition familial chylomicronemia syndrome
For the first time, a drug to treat adult patients with familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS), a severe and rare condition that leads to extremely high levels of blood fats called triglycerides, has been approved by the ...
Tech Xplore / More efficient aircraft engines: Scientists reveal optimization potential
With its "Flightpath 2050" strategy, the European Commission has outlined a framework for the aviation industry that aims to reduce emissions as well as fuel and energy consumption. Among other things, this requires more ...
Medical Xpress / New AI technology can provide rapid and reliable dementia diagnosis
Researchers at Örebro University have developed two new AI models that can analyze the brain's electrical activity and accurately distinguish between healthy individuals and patients with dementia, including Alzheimer's ...
Medical Xpress / 'Cognitive Legos' help the brain build complex behaviors
Artificial intelligence may write award-winning essays and diagnose disease with remarkable accuracy, but biological brains still hold the upper hand in at least one crucial domain: flexibility.
Phys.org / Novel mRNA therapy curbs antibiotic-resistant infections in preclinical lung models
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and collaborators have reported early success with a novel mRNA-based therapy designed to combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Medical Xpress / New study shows why some minds can't switch off at night
Australian researchers have found compelling evidence that insomnia may be linked to disruptions in the brain's natural 24-hour rhythm of mental activity, shedding light on why some people struggle to "switch off" at night.
Medical Xpress / Model helps explain how context-dependent behavior occurs
How animals may modify their behavior depending on their context has been modeled mathematically by two RIKEN neuroscientists. Their simple but biologically plausible model could shed light on mental disorders such as autism ...
